In this episode of the Stress-Free Dentist Podcast, Dr. Eric Block sits down with Maria Jackson — a dental hygienist who built a second career inside dentistry without ever leaving it. Born in Peru and raised in West Palm Beach, Maria is the daughter of a retired oral surgeon and the only one of her siblings drawn to the field. She had already applied to dental school and been accepted when she changed course to hygiene instead, a decision she says her father nearly killed her over. She holds a bachelor's in biology and a bachelor's from the Fones School of Dental Hygiene at the University of Bridgeport — the first dental hygiene school in the country, founded in 1913 — and practiced full time for over a decade, mostly in DSOs, eventually training hygienists across an entire territory. The turn came after seven years of IVF. Maria finally got pregnant, then developed carpal tunnel in both hands at six months, so swollen she could barely hold an instrument. She saw a hand specialist on her lunch breaks and went back to see patients, came home in tears every night, and pushed through to her C-section rather than spend her three months of leave recovering instead of with her son. She had surgery on both hands. While working full time with a one-year-old, she finished a master's in digital technology with a concentration in AI and business analytics in under a year and a half, and landed her first job before she graduated. It cost her $30,000 — and she is candid that she probably did not need it. Maria now consults for early-stage AI companies, giving them the clinical perspective their engineers do not have: what the workflow actually looks like, what patients actually say, where a beautiful piece of software stops making sense at the chair. She works with AIzac, which built a dental-specific large language model and white-labels it along with speech-to-text and perio charting. And she coaches other dental professionals through the same pivot she made — deliberately without the degree she paid for. The conversation closes on why technology sticks in some offices and dies in others, and on the advice she gives anyone still talking about a change they have not started: write it down, then shoot a hundred darts.
We hold these Monthly Virtual Town Hall Meetings so that we can engage with our listeners locally, nationally and internationally and encourage them to join the Grass Roots Community Activist Movement. We also want to raise funds for our film project "Hood Liberator Made In Chicago: The War Against Willie Lynch Begins" This film project is my last attempt to try to do something positive for my racial group Black Americans who identify as (DAS-FM) Descendants of American Slaves/Freedmen. We host our Monthly Virtual Interactive Conference on the last Saturday of the month. We're trying to raise $250 thousand dollars so that we can make a quality Black Empowerment Film based on my experience growing up in the inner cities of Chicago and having to endure all kinds of push back from Black Chicago for trying to get my Black Christian business up and running in the Black Community. I want to encourage seasoned Black American Film Makers and African Film Makers from across the United States of America to consider working with us in getting this film fully funded and made because it is needed now more then ever. #NotAnother34Years, #M1, #DAS-FM, #JoinGRCAM

The Government Contracting Playbook: Leveraging Military Logistics, AI Solutions, and Public Sector Procurement with Kamar PerkinsIn a recent episode of The Thoughtful Entrepreneur Podcast, host Josh Elledge sat down with Kamar Perkins, an Army National Guard veteran and the Founder and President of Protech Consulting Group, to unpack the operational strategies required for small businesses and veteran founders to scale within the federal marketplace. Kamar, a former quartermaster officer and seasoned public sector growth architect, details how military leadership principles translate directly into technical entrepreneurship and government procurement execution. This conversation provides an essential, practical guide for B2B founders, defense contractors, and technology leaders looking to leverage artificial intelligence, navigate agile procurement shifts, secure set-aside certifications, and establish high-trust relationships across government agencies.The Public Sector Growth Architecture: Harnessing Military Operations, AI Tech, and Agile ProcurementThe primary obstacle preventing emerging technology firms from breaking into federal, state, and local government contracting is navigating the dense compliance mandates of the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) while building verifiable past performance. Kamar Perkins explains that military veterans possess a distinct competitive advantage in this sector because core service roles—particularly logistics, supply chain management, and tactical leadership—mirror the complex resource allocation required for high-stakes government projects. Rather than attempting to secure multi-million-dollar prime contracts immediately, small businesses must adopt a phased approach: partnering as subcontractors with established prime vendors, tapping into Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) or 8(a) set-asides, and building a proven track record of execution.Scaling a specialized tech consultancy in the public sector demands delivering high-demand, future-proof software capabilities like artificial intelligence and machine learning tailored to specific agency missions. Because federal decision-makers prioritize data security, system scalability, and ongoing serviceability, technology providers must build robust documentation and clear upgrade paths into every solution. As federal procurement trends shift toward agile acquisition frameworks—which favor iterative project delivery and faster timelines—small firms must position themselves as agile innovation partners. Coupling technical capability with staff who understand public sector culture enables boutique firms to win competitive proposals and deliver measurable operational impact for agency clients.Furthermore, driving long-term enterprise growth across both commercial and government markets requires business leaders to replace transactional cold pitches with intentional, relationship-driven networking. Actively engaging agency contacts, participating in industry trade groups, and sharing authoritative thought leadership across digital channels builds institutional trust long before an official Request for Proposal (RFP) is issued. Maximizing visibility through executive media opportunities, maintaining complete press kits, and consistently following up with strategic partners transforms simple introductions into long-term sub-contracting and prime opportunities. When military operational discipline, cutting-edge AI delivery, and proactive relationship building are synthesized into a single business architecture, small enterprises successfully eliminate procurement friction, protect profit margins, and predictably expand enterprise valuation.About Kamar PerkinsKamar Perkins is the Founder and President of Protech Consulting Group, an Army National Guard veteran, and an expert consultant in federal government contracting and technology implementation. Drawing from a rich background as an Army quartermaster officer specializing in logistics and tactical operations, Kamar guides small business owners and veteran entrepreneurs through public sector procurement. He is a recognized thought leader focused on helping technology firms deploy artificial intelligence, build strategic agency relationships, and navigate government acquisition frameworks.About Protech Consulting GroupProtech Consulting Group is an elite technology advisory firm and government contracting consultancy engineered to help public sector agencies and commercial enterprises deploy advanced software solutions. The firm specializes in delivering custom AI and machine learning platforms, data analytics optimization, agile IT project management, and small business government contracting advisory services. Through specialized procurement guidance and technical execution, Protech Consulting Group enables organizations to navigate complex regulatory environments, eliminate operational bottlenecks, and achieve sustainable growth.Links Mentioned in This EpisodeProtech Consulting Group Official Website: protechconsultinggroup.comKamar Perkins on LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/kamardperkinsKey Episode HighlightsTranslating Military Logistics into Business Value: How quartermaster and NCO leadership experience provides a foundation for complex project management and operations.Deploying AI Solutions for Federal Agencies: Developing scalable machine learning and data analytics platforms tailored to public sector procurement mandates.Navigating Agile Government Procurement: Strategies for small businesses to start as subcontractors, leverage veteran set-asides, and build past performance.Strategic B2G Relationship Architecture: Building long-term trust with agency decision-makers and prime contractors prior to RFP releases.Executive Media Optimization: Preparing press kits and leveraging podcast appearances to amplify brand authority and attract high-value partners.ConclusionThe conversation with Kamar Perkins underscores that achieving lasting success in government contracting requires a deliberate synthesis of military-grade operational discipline, specialized technical expertise, and persistent relationship building. By standardizing internal compliance protocols, focusing on high-demand tech capabilities like AI, and leveraging strategic network connections, business leaders can transform an emerging contracting firm into a highly structured, self-sustaining enterprise.More from The Thoughtful Entrepreneur

Right now, the questions we have about our careers feel existential. We keep coming back to the same theme: how do you prepare for an industry that's changing this fast, and what mindset actually works in this new reality? One skill keeps surfacing as the answer — your ability to update your own mental models. In today's episode, I want to push on that further and put some of software engineering's most beloved thinking models under scrutiny. Some of these models served you well for years. Some of them now deserve to be challenged, replaced, or thrown out entirely — and learning how to tell the difference is itself the skill that will determine whether you hit a ceiling. Move Past "So What" Questions: The typical engineering objection to agentic coding is that it produces quality issues. But the people deciding to adopt these tools already accept that. Our job is to stop arguing the surface-level point and start asking the real one: so what do we actually do about this new economic reality? The Economics of Acceptable Loss: Abstraction always leaves something to be desired. An agent's code may not match what a staff engineer produces by hand over months — but that gap is usually an acceptable trade against shipping something two, three, or four times faster. Understand the cost-benefit picture instead of pretending the cost doesn't exist. Abstraction Has Always Done This: This isn't new. The calculator dissolved the specialization once required for complex math. Spreadsheets commoditized ledgering and accounting. Agentic coding is the same pattern arriving for our work — making something that required deep specialization suddenly far more accessible. Roles Are Blurring: As these generic tools raise everyone's ability to abstract, the boundaries soften. You're already seeing product managers open pull requests and engineers making product decisions. The neat lines around "what an engineer is" are not as fixed as they used to feel. Why Your Hard-Won Wisdom Is the Target: If you've spent years in this industry, your models were bought with blood, sweat, and failed projects. That experience is real wisdom — and it's exactly what I'm asking you to be willing to challenge, because the thing that always worked for you is the thing most likely to become a ceiling. This Skill Survives Either Way: Even if you think AI is mostly hype and I've been infected by it — fine. The ability to challenge your pre-existing models is a critical skill regardless. It's how you keep growing as you get more senior instead of repeating what used to work. Models Are Approximations: The whole point of a model is to approximate the reality around us. That's their value and their limitation. When the underlying reality shifts this dramatically, holding tightly to an old approximation stops being wisdom and starts being a liability.

This month on the My DPC Story podcast we are talking about the tools that serve us, and Dr. Michael Hobbs is a voice you do not want to miss.Dr. Hobbs is a pediatrician and founder of Lakes Pediatrics, the first pediatric Direct Primary Care practice in the Minneapolis area, serving families across Edina, Wayzata, and the western suburbs. He brings over twenty years in Twin Cities pediatrics, more than a decade as an adjunct professor at the University of Minnesota Medical School, Top Doctor recognition from Mpls.St.Paul Magazine and Minnesota Monthly, subspecialty training in infectious diseases and Group A Strep, and a Reach Institute mini-fellowship in pediatric mental health care.What makes this episode essential listening is Dr. Hobbs himself. A self-described knowledgeable hacker who grew up alongside the technology, from a Commodore 64 to writing early web pages, he has watched the entire arc of medical documentation: index cards, paper charts, dictation, the EHR, templates, and now AI scribes. He knows what gets better and what gets worse when tech enters the exam room.In this conversation, Dr. Hobbs covers:The one question to ask before adopting any tool, EHR, phone system, or AIWhy building your own tools is more doable than you thinkWhy now is not the time to lock into a long term software contractThe difference between AI that serves you and AI that turns you into a liability machinePatient transparency, shadow AI, BAAs, and using tools safelyWhy LLMs are terrible at math, learned the hard wayThe best first AI investment for a new DPC doctor on a small budgetAI as a clinical decision support thought partner, not a guideline machineAnd because both Dr. Concepcion and Dr. Hobbs are recovering anthropology buffs, they keep returning to the truth underneath the technology: people like people. The tools only matter if they give us more room to be human with the families we serve.Whether you are deep into building AI workflows or you hear the word AI and want to run, this episode meets you where you are.New to DPC or ready to go deeper?

In this special episode of Tangent Proptech, Edward Cohen is on the red carpet at one of the most exclusive commercial real estate events of the year: the Real Estate Gala in New York City. This episode features rapid-fire conversations with founders, investors, brokers, developers, and operators across the proptech and commercial real estate ecosystem. A big focus of the evening was on AI. Namely, this question: how is AI being used in real estate right now? And possibly more front-and-center: what's hype and what's here to stay? From leasing and marketing to underwriting and financial modeling, this episode explores where artificial intelligence is already driving value in real estate, where it's falling short, and how we can close the gap.(00:00) - Welcome to the Real Estate Gala Red Carpet Interviews (02:30) - Cyrus Claffey (ButterflyMX): AI Across Product, Marketing, & Operations (06:00) - Zach Molzer (Molzer Development) & Madi Bremer (CBRE): Networking & AI in Leasing (08:30) - Gabe Einhorn (VryfID): Content, Consistency, and AI Efficiency (10:00) - Kaylan Knitowski (Franklin Street): AI Workflows and Competing with Experience (13:30) - David Auerbach (Hoya Capital): Driving Tech Adoption in Real Estate (14:45) - Adam Steiner (Rick, Steiner, Fell, and Benowitz): Document Automation & Bridging Tech and Business (16:45) - Humberto Lopes (HL Dynasty, Gotham Housing Alliance): A Human-First Real Estate Perspective (19:15) - Jovian Lopes (Gotham Housing Alliance): AI for Research vs Human Relationships (21:00) - Lauren O'Breza (Foresite CRE): AI in Brokerage & Underwriting (24:30) - Pablo Barreiro (Fortec): Simplifying Tech Adoption & the Future of Financing (26:00) - Shanti Ryle (Crexi): AI Data Enrichment & Storytelling Advantage (30:30) - Rameen Inayat (Ryan): AI for Admin & Property Tax Insights (32:00) - Collaboration Superpower: Priya Parker

Doing It Online : The Doable Online Marketing Podcast with Kate McKibbin
You don't need a developer, a $10,000 custom build, or some fancy tech you can barely pronounce to actually use AI in your business properly.The full AI tech stack running our entire business at HelloFunnels is genuinely budget-friendly. No N8N. No extra computers running in the corner of an office. No mystery integrations that only a developer can touch.It is a small handful of tools (most of which you have probably already heard of), all talking to each other and quietly doing the work in the background.In this episode, Kate is cracking open the full AI tech stack we use to run HelloFunnels. Every single tool, every single cost, and exactly what each one is doing for us behind the scenes.If you've been hearing all the AI hype lately but assuming it needs a giant tech budget or a developer on retainer to make it actually work, this episode is for you.Inside the episode:The two versions of Claude we run (and the reason we actually use both)Why Airtable and ClickUp together make up our "business brain"The little tool quietly connecting everything (and only costs about $20 a month extra)The optional fifth tool that completely changed how we approach ads and market researchPlus the actual total cost of the whole stack (it's lower than you think)This episode is the natural next step after last week's deep dive into our AI Business Brain. If you missed that one, go back and listen to it first for the full picture.
In this episode of Tech Talks, Mahima Singh interviews Siddharth Singh, a published AI researcher, engineer and MS Computer Science Candidate at Stony Brook University. Siddharth shares insights on bridging research and engineering in real-world AI systems. He highlights the fundamental difference between researchers and engineers—where researchers focus on truth and rigor, engineers focus on building reliable systems under real-world constraints—and emphasizes the importance of combining both mindsets to create impactful AI solutions.Siddharth discusses how to identify meaningful research problems, design robust evaluation frameworks, and navigate the transition from research to production. He explains that real-world AI systems must account for constraints like latency, compute, and unpredictable environments, making system design—not just model performance—critical. He also highlights common failure modes in AI, including distribution shifts, metric misalignment, and human behavior adaptation.In this conversation, Siddharth shares practical guidance for working across research, engineering, and product roles. He explains how strong product managers manage uncertainty, translate business problems into precise technical questions, and avoid premature assumptions. He also advises students to build technical literacy, understand the gap between research and deployment, and develop the ability to frame clear, actionable problems. The discussion concludes with insights on experimentation, iteration, and the critical role of human judgment in building reliable AI systems.

Gen Z Historian Kahlil Greene explains how today's ICE enforcement has chilling parallels to the slave patrols of the 19th Century, designed to hunt human beings for profit and power. Then, Sharon speaks with author Karen Hao to talk about her new book Empire of AI, and why the biggest names in tech aren't just building tools, but chasing a quasi-religious vision of control. Karen reveals how that ideology is reshaping democracy, draining the planet, and quietly harming people right now… but, she says, there are ways to change the future of AI before it gets worse.
